Abstract (en)

A mixed drinks manufacturing device comprising united mixing systems (2) with a first connection, to which a pressure tank with a beverage concentrate (5) under gas pressure is connected, a first line between the first connection and a mixing zone (16), a pressure reduction valve (13), a metering valve (14), a first check valve in the first line, a second line between a second connection connected to a water source and the mixing zone, and a third connection for the delivery of the mixed drink from the mixing zone via a first delivery line. A Mixed drinks manufacturing device comprising united mixing systems (2) with a first connection, to which a pressure tank with a beverage concentrate (5) under gas pressure is connected, a first line between the first connection and a mixing zone (16), a pressure reduction valve (13), a metering valve (14), a first check valve in the first line, a second line between a second connection connected to a water source and the mixing zone, and a third connection for the delivery of the mixed drink from the mixing zone via a first delivery line. Only the foremost of the second connection is attached to the source of water and only the rear-most of the third connection is attached to the delivery line and the remaining second and third connections are locked. The pressure reduction valve is higher than the pressure of the water source. A carbonator is arranged between the water source and the second connection. A fourth line branches off between the water source and the carbonator and is connected with a fourth connection of the mixing system. The fourth connection is connected with the second line. A first switching valve is arranged to the second connection and a second switching valve is arranged to the fourth connection. A third switching valve is arranged in the first delivery line. A fifth line connected to a second delivery line over a fourth switching valve, branches out from the second line. A second check valve is arranged in the first line directly before the mixing zone. An independent claim is included for a pressure tank with beverage concentrate.
